Brief introduction of Asimov

The content of Asimov's encyclopedia comes from: isaac asimov (translated by Asimov from Taiwan Province, 1920 65438+ 19921October 2-65438+April 6), a science fiction and popular science writer and literary critic. One of the representatives of the golden age of American science fiction. He is an American Jew born in Russia. His works are extremely rich, including Me, Robot, Base and Steel Cave. In his book Runaround published by 194 1, he clearly put forward the famous "Asimov's three laws of robots" for the first time. Asimov Science Fiction Magazine named after it is still one of the best-selling science fiction literary magazines in the United States. His two popular science essays "Dinosaurs Everywhere" and "Broken Sand" were selected as middle school Chinese textbooks.

Asimov was a Russian-American Jew. 1920 10 was born in Petrograd, Russia on February 2. At the age of 3, his family moved to the United States and obtained American citizenship five years later. Asimov's father owns several candy chain stores in Brooklyn, new york, and Asimov helps to look after the stores while reading. Asimov's father is very conservative and strict with his children. Asimov was forbidden to read newspapers and books such as violent pornography, so Asimov chose science fiction and became obsessed with it from the age of 9.

Asimov likes reading books since he was a child. When he was six years old, his father gave him a library card of the city library, and at the same time, he began to receive formal education in the United States. /kloc-started working in his father's candy store at the age of 0/0, and developed the habit of continuous work, which accompanied him all his life. Since then, he has worked as a typist, teaching assistant and associate professor. From 1958, Asimov became a professional writer.

/kloc-at the age of 0/8, Asimov submitted his first novel, Cosmic Bottle Opener, to the science fiction magazine edited by Campbell, a famous science fiction writer and editor, but Campbell thought it was "too long as a short story and too short as a novel" and he "didn't like the slow beginning and the suicide ending". However, Campbell gave Asimov great encouragement. Results1March 939, Asimov finally published his first work, Escape from Vesta.

In the same year, Asimov received a bachelor's degree in Colombia and a master's degree in literature at 194 1. Asimov joined the army in World War II. After the war, he obtained his doctorate in 1948 and entered the university to teach. Asimov created a large number of sci-fi works in his life, including two series: "Base" series and "Robot" series.

The series "Base" shows readers a vast picture of the universe. Its story takes place in the distant future, when human beings have spread all over 2.5 million planets and the population has reached 654.38+000 billion, forming a real cosmic empire. At this time, a social psychologist has come to the conclusion that the empire is about to collapse, human society will enter the dark period of 30 thousand years, and all civilizations will disappear; However, if we follow his method and build a base, we can keep the fire of human civilization and shorten the dark period to 1000. ...

The "Robot" series of short stories are mainly included in Me, Robot (a movie of the same name starring will smith, also translated as Public Enemy of Machinery) and Another Robot. In addition, Asimov's sci-fi works about robots also include the long mysterious detective "Steel Cave" and "Naked Days". Asimov established a set of behavioral norms and moral standards for robots with his "three laws of robots", thus deducing a series of beautiful stories with strong reasoning and logic.

In addition to the above two series, Asimov has many popular sci-fi works, such as Twilight, which describes the starry sky of a civilized planet once in a thousand years, Gods themselves, which describes aliens in a "parallel world", and his only time travel, Eternal Doomsday, and so on.

As a scientific worker, Asimov not only writes science fiction, but also writes popular science works, and his popular science works are equally insatiable. As a critic said after Asimov's death, "His works delighted millions of people and changed their view of the world."

Introduction to the main works: base, base series trilogy: base: base is the first part of the base series trilogy. The galactic empire that ruled the galaxy 12000 has gradually declined. At that time, there was only Harry, the great master of psychohistory? Seldon foresaw that people in the galaxy would experience a dark period of 30,000 years, full of ignorance, barbarism and war. Seldon then managed to set up a "base" on a desolate planet on the edge of the Milky Way, hoping that it would become a beacon of hope for future generations of mankind. However, with the gradual decline of the empire, the base was surrounded by militant strong neighbors. Humans are also faced with painful choices, surrendering to barbaric forces and willing to be controlled? Or stand up and fight regardless of the danger of being wiped out?

Base trilogy: base and empire: base and empire is the second part of the base trilogy. At this time, the base founded by hari seldon, a great psychological historian, has gained a firm foothold in the outer edge of the galaxy, but it still has to face the pressure from the galactic empire.

The dying empire still has the most powerful power in the galaxy. An ambitious general led a space fleet to attack the base, and all the hopes of scholars and scientists living on the base asteroid that they could escape this disaster were maintained in the language left by Seldon before his birth. ...

However, even Seldon could not have predicted that there was an external force more threatening than the space corps, and that was the mutant mule in the Milky Way. In the face of the strange spiritual power of mules, no matter how strong people are, they will be obedient slaves. Mule Black Fleet has accepted the history of more than 300 years without bloodshed. In order to conquer the universe, mules and loyal people are looking for the second base. The first wave of search of mules is stopped by an ordinary woman, Bei Da, thus winning enough time for the counterattack plan of the second base.

The base trilogy: The second base: The second base is the third part of the base trilogy. The existence of the mysterious second base has become the target of public criticism. The mule wants to eradicate it, and the immigrants at the first base must find it for completely different reasons, but where is it? This story is the legend of the parties looking for the second base. Mules tried their best to find and eradicate the second base, but failed. Later, the base personnel also tried their best to find a second base because they didn't want to hand over the achievements of building a new empire. No one expected that the clue they were looking for was actually maintained on a little girl. Fourteen-year-old Agatha was scared to death. What secret did she discover about the second base?
